There are seven estates on Jura: Ardfin, Inver, Jura Forest, Ruantallain, Tarbert, Ardlussa, and Barnhill. The island of Jura is seven miles (11 km) wide and thirty miles (48 km) long and it has only one road, one pub, and one distillery. The location Jura Two-One-Two whisky was named after the 212 inhabitants of the island of Jura.

The work was completed in 1963, and included the installation of taller stills, allowing the distillery to create a mix of malts. In the 1950s two local estate owners, Robin Fletcher and Tony Riley-Smith, keen to revive the local economy, had the distillery rebuilt and expanded by the architects Lothian, Barclay, Jarvis & Boys with input from whisky and distillery expert William Delmé-Evans. Around 1900, it was again in disuse and dismantled. The distillery fell into disrepair but was restored in 1884. The distillery was founded by the Laird of Jura, Archibald Campbell in 1810. The distillery is operated by Whyte & Mackay, which Philippines-based Alliance Global owns.
